The Bharatiya Janata Party has accused the Congress of spreading lies by linking the incident of arson in Paltan Bazaar with the Dehradun visit of the President. The BJP State spokesman Naveen Thakur said that contrary to the Congress’ claims, the incident took place after the President’s tour ended but the Congress, which is struggling for survival, wants to dent the image of the government. Trying to run a media trial on every incident also affects the legal process, he claimed.
Thakur said on Friday that the Congress is devoid of any issues and is hence resorting to spreading lies and confusion in an attempt to create an atmosphere of fear in the public to gain politically. “Desperate due to its consistent failures, the Congress starts a media trial on every incident which also benefits the accused. The Congress has now made an unsuccessful attempt to link the incident of arson with the President’s visit to Dehradun even though the incident took place after her departure. The President left Dehradun on Wednesday afternoon while the arson took place late at night but the Congress is terming it a lapse in the security of the President. The police have already arrested an accused in the arson incident,” Thakur said.
He further claimed that Congress and its leaders are unable to digest the fact that the law and order situation in the State is good under the leadership of chief minister Pushkar Singh Dhami.
